LA Porterbuilt Tubular Control Arms - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

gringoloco · 11-25-2012, 06:14 PM

I hate to do this, buuuuuuuuut, I have other pressing priorities.

So, here's a set of Porterbuilt tubular lower control arms, brand slappin' new, with fresh satin black powder coat. These can be used for airbags or coil springs by using the included billet coil spring retainers (a $50 upgrade). Includes new 73-87 C10 lower balljoints, but will accept 63-72 as well. These are the 1" forward version, which move the lower balljoint forward to improve caster as well as help to center the front wheel in the opening on lowered trucks.

These retail for $550, plus the $50 coil retainers, and ~$50 worth of professional powdercoating = $650.

Lowers only, as pictured, brand new, never installed.

$500 plus shipping

hey do you know if these are the same for 2wd blazers 72. if so i will take and can you price shipping to 27583 thanks richie

gringoloco · 11-25-2012, 10:12 PM

They are. You will need 71-72 specific ball joints, but otherwise, they're a direct fit. I have you down as first interest--I will work on a shipping quote ASAP.

EDIT: shipping cost via UPS.com is estimated $55

gringo,... 71-72 trucks and 73-87 trucks share the same lower ball joint.
So these are a bolt-on for the 71-72 trucks as well.
